From: D.M. Procida on 22 Apr 2008 03:57 iTunes eats up 50% of available CPU time on my iBook G4. It does this even when it isn't (apparently) doing anything, even after a restart. Playing an MP3 stream whacks it up a further 20-25%. iTunes 7.6.2, Mac OS X 10.5.2 Daniele

That's in fact what it turned out to be. Useless bloody thing. I don't think it did that before (with an earlier version of iTunes/Mac OS X). Daniele

I found that although iWOW did indeed improve the sound quality, the package as a whole was just too restrictive. Basically you can install it on two (I think) machines, and if you want to transfer one to another machine you're stuffed.
